The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) reportedly threatened to withdraw its team from the second Test against England at Lord’s after Sky Sports aired an interview with former Pakistan captain and Prime Minister Imran Khan’s sons, Kasim and Sulaiman. The interview, conducted by former England captain Michael Atherton, included serious allegations about their father’s deteriorating health and prison conditions, with the sons claiming authorities were “trying to kill him.” The PCB objected to the political content being broadcast during the Test and lodged a formal complaint with Sky Sports. Despite the dispute, Pakistan returned to the field and the match continued.
